Which Should You Buy?
Divisive and wildly inconsistent, Aoud Café smells like something completely different on everyone. You'll either get a bold, rich coffee gourmand or a pungent hit of celery and baby powder. Sample before you commit to a full bottle, because this ain't a safe blind buy.
Absolus Allegoria Tabac Sahara is a divisive beast: a love-it-or-hate-it explosion of sweet, smoky tobacco and jammy raspberry. It's not for the faint of heart, but those who 'get' it, absolutely adore its bold, sensual charm.
